SUMMARY:Purple Martin Nest Check (Adults)
DESCRIPTION:Purple martins return each spring to Prairie Ridge to nest and raise their young. While they are here\, each week we check on their nests and record the data through a citizen science project called NestWatch. \nJoin us for a special program on these beautiful birds and learn how we check nests. We will have a guest ornithologist with us to help answer any questions. This is an adult program. No preregistration necessary. We will be out in the open so please dress for the weather — a hat and sunscreen are recommended. Also\, please wear closed-toed shoes and bring a refillable water bottle. We will meet outside the classroom building\, a short walk down the gravel path from the front entrance.

SUMMARY:Lunchtime Discovery: OCEARCH: Expedition Northbound and White Sharks of the Atlantic
DESCRIPTION:Chris Fischer\, OCEARCH Founder and Expedition Leader \nOCEARCH recently embarked on Expedition Northbound\, its 45th ocean research expedition to learn more about Western North Atlantic white sharks as they begin to leave the Carolinas region and transition north for the summer. Data shows that prior to their spring migration north\, many white sharks use the productive continental shelf waters around the Outer Banks\, North Carolina region as an overwintering and spring staging area before heading north for the summer. \nPrior to this expedition\, OCEARCH’s dedicated and collaborative team successfully tagged 88 white sharks throughout the western North Atlantic\, collecting data for over 24 science projects that enabled them to put together the pieces of the life history puzzle of the white shark in the region. Join Chris Fischer as he discusses Expedition Northbound and the Western North Atlantic white shark. \nJoin us on YouTube!\n\nLive Virtual Presentation hosted by NC Museum of Natural Sciences’ SECU Daily Planet Curator Chris Smith and the NC Department of Environmental Quality Office of Environmental Education and Public Affairs staff. \nYou can post questions in the YouTube chat or tweet questions to #LunchTimeDiscovery and mention @NorthCarolinaEE. \nBrought to you by the NC DEQ Office of Environmental Education and Public Affairs and the NC Museum of Natural Sciences.
